Our Take

Merle Haggard, the legendary outlaw country singer, graced the stage for his latest album "Live!" and boy, did he deliver! From the twang of his guitar to the heartfelt stories behind each song, Haggard reminded us why he's a timeless icon in the world of country music.

The album kicks off with the toe-tapping "Mama Tried," a classic Haggard hit that had the crowd on their feet in no time. His rich vocals and effortless stage presence made it clear that he's still got it, even after all these years. As he moved through fan favourites like "Okie from Muskogee" and "The Fightin' Side of Me," it was evident that Haggard's music still resonates with fans old and new alike.

But it wasn't just the hits that stole the show - Haggard also treated the audience to some lesser-known gems, like the haunting ballad "If We Make It Through December." His storytelling ability shone through on every track, transporting listeners to a simpler time when country music was all about heart and soul.

Overall, "Live!" is a must-listen for any country music fan. Merle Haggard may be a living legend, but this album proves that he's still as relevant and captivating as ever. So grab your cowboy hat and boots, and get ready for a wild ride with the one and only Merle Haggard. Yeehaw!
